Today, Damian Myles was laid to rest. Seven BMXers led him out as guards of honour, making Damian the 8th rider on the gate, with a special Hutch bike and an Aero custom Hutch/Mongoose number plate. Carl Hughes, Darren Oakes, Scott Williams, Darren Nelson, Darren Reidy, Simon Bailey, Andy Oldham and John Bentley all led the way on their bikes, sporting Damian Myles UKBMX Legend t-shirts, along with Damian’s family and friends.
Andy Oldham and Darren Nelson were ranked UKBMX National numbers 2 and 3 in 1983 behind Damian, which makes it even more special from the BMXers’ side and a real mark of respect to Damian. Thoughts go out to all the family and friends, and of course, little Ruby. RIP Damian Myles.
